Question by Glytch78 2004-02-10 07:30:14
What exactly is "Computer Science" as far a collage course? What can one expect to get out of it? What can one do with it? I've been talking to others about going back to school and everyone is telling me to get a Computer Science degree. But when I ask them what exactly it is they don't have a clue. They only know that so-and-so's brother's uncle's first wives son-in-law went and now is making a tonn of money!
